Strawberry Peach Quinoa Crumble with Coconut Whipped Cream

Strawberry Peach Quinoa Crumble with Coconut Whipped Cream

Did you know that when peaches and strawberries are baked together…they turn purple?

Who would’a thunk it?

Not this girl! 

I spent most of my day yesterday working on the ebook. Blake is taking summer courses for grad school (MBA), so our weekends are very low key. He has to write a 12 page paper…and it was raining, okay! I had a last minute change of heart in the design I was working on. I had originally had my mind set on a horizontal layout (11 x 8.5), but then I started designing covers…and this happened.

This still isn’t the final final, but I LOVE the color story and the amount of white space this photo has. I keep my fonts pretty consistent on the blog, so I tried to take those into the book for continuity. 

If you have a design eye. I’d LOVE your feedback on…

  • Font choices
  • Font color choices
  • Font placing
  • Anything else you have an opinion on!

Do you ever get in one of those modes WHERE YOU JUST CAN’T STOP. Like I am so excited to be in the home stretch of designing this e-book that I could literally stay up all night and do it. #obsessive

Okay, back to this delicious DESSERT. 

All you need are 8 ingredients. It’s gluten free. Seasonally tasteful. And healthy enough to eat for breakfast! LEGITIMATELY. 

The innards are a mixture of fresh strawberries and peaches mixed with maple syrup, orange juice, and a few tablespoons of almond meal for texture.

On top- I mixed together some leftover quinoa from the night before and some Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Granola. Very basic. Very very basic.

I finished this bad boy off with some coconut whipped cream…but you could totes go straight up ice cream. I would if I had any…but I try and keep that out of the house or I would probably turn into the ice cream man himself. 

I still can’t get over the color that was made when the two fruits roasted in the oven and mixed together. #baffled

Unless I bought magical fruit, in that case…SWEET!

Feedback on the cover? CHIME IN!

Seasonal summer fruits- what’s your fav?
